The match was originally scheduled for February 17

The legendary Lennox Lewis, who is the last absolute heavyweight champion of the world today, reacted to the situation with the Usyk-Fury fight. According to the 58-year-old boxer, Tyson will need about 3 months to recover.

Lewis admitted that Fury was unlucky because he was hit in the same place in the sparring session as he was cut in the fight against Otto Wallin in 2019.

"Tyson was unlucky. This injury is in the same area as the one he received in the fight with Wallin. It will most likely take about 6 stitches and 3 months to recover. The saga continues," Lewis wrote on his social media.

As reported, WBC titleholder Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) was injured on February 2 while preparing for a fight against WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs). The fight was officially postponed.

Tyson said he apologizes for the disruption of the fight.
